I have his SAA single trap. I'm not real interested in selling, but I'm 78 years old, so who knows.

Pls let me know if you change your mind. Shelly was a client and I loved talking with him about Parkers

Garry, when Bill sells off his collection there will be such a glut of Parkers on the market that it will devalue every Parker we own!

Of that, Mountain Mike, I have no doubt. But if we could only look at the photos...

Our local gun shop just consigned 14 of them. I am guessing someone is unloading an estate. There was also some Bakers, Fox and many other assorted SxS's brought in including an unfired Holland & Holland Royal with a tiny asking price of only $127,000 CDN.

There is one guy on Gunbroker that has thousands of desireable doubles that are all overpriced and I have never seen him sell one. Gunsinternational is the same. There are well known dealers I know who have enormous numbers of desireable classics who I also believe sell very few guns. I have made the same comment before, but I think it applies more to overpriced, intransigent dealers than to actual collectors.
